Fixed Annuities

Retirement Planning

Coordinate annuities with broader retirement and financial planning goals so income, taxes, risk, and long-term needs work together.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does annuity income affect SSDI?

In most cases, income from an annuity does not reduce Social Security Disability Insurance benefits because SSDI is generally based on your work history and whether you are engaging in substantial work activity, not on passive income sources. However, annuity withdrawals can affect taxes, Medicaid eligibility, or other needs-based programs. It is important to review your full situation before starting income.
